Anti-cables alternatives This is an old thread. I am also interested in alternative to Anti Cables. Anybody has any idea if this wire is any good? One reviewer says he does use it for audio. TEMCo 12 AWG Copper Magnet Wire - 1 lb 50 ft 200°C Magnetic Coil Winding https://... | |
Harbeth Love and your experiences OK guys. I am finally a proud owner of SHL5s (not Plus version). I found a very good deal on a barely used Tiger Ebony and had to get it! I will probably never know if Compact 7 is better than these also, but I know this; this one is better soundi... | |
Speaker recommendation for married couple I felt bad and happy when I found this killer deal on a barely used SHL5 (not Plus) Harbeths. See, I was not too crazy for the SHL5 Plus version. Actually liked the Compact 7ES3 better. I have never heard the SHL5 before but I compared the 40.1 &a... | |

Speaker recommendation for married couple Unfortunately, almost entire room. It is an attic but we have furniture and stuff (it is our hobby room). Current speakers 32 inches floor standers. A friend did the measurements with his MiniDSP and the results were not that bad. He was actually ... | |
